Answer to Question 1

A
In activity scheduling, the client is asked to keep a daily log of activities and rate them for mastery and pleasure in order to identify recurring daily patterns that may need to be addressed in therapy.

Answer to Question 2

D
Cognitive rehearsal allows the employee to uncover potential automatic thoughts in advance of his or her meeting to request a promotion. This allows the employee to develop strategies to modify any dysfunctional thinking.
